Chapter 184: A Long and Thin Figure
"Be careful!"
Seeing that Sharon was about to stand up strongly, but almost lost her balance and fell, just like I had just done, I hurriedly stepped forward and gently lifted her up. After standing firmly, the foreign girl seemed to have realized the abnormality of her body, but smiled generously at me and thanked me.
"It's okay, if I want to thank you, I still have to thank you!"
Actually, what I said is really from the bottom of my heart. After all, when I was caught in the psionic vortex just now, if it weren't for Sharon's urgency, putting on the Liuhe treasure robe and rushing into the heart, staring at the psionic storm to save me from consciousness, it is estimated that I would have reported to the Judge of Hades in the Netherworld now.
"Then you saved me once just now, let's settle it." Seeing that I insisted, Sharon didn't say much, chuckled, and ended the topic.
Presumably because her eyesight had not yet recovered, she looked around blankly and asked me again, "What is this place?" ”
"Uh, I guess it's outside the temple, right?" What I'm saying is just my own conjecture. According to my estimate, we may have been blown away by the powerful psionic storm just now. I wonder if the abandoned temple was completely destroyed in that storm? I don't know if the cabinet and Mengzhao are okay.
With this question in mind, I had to slowly explore the surrounding meadow that occasionally showed piles of unmelted snow. Limited by the extent to which our vision has recovered, we can only walk and stop, exploring the surrounding meadows with no end in sight.
After aimlessly tossing nearly half a pillar of incense, it is disappointing that we have not found any valuable clues.
The only good news is that over time, our bodies have gradually recovered, and our five senses, especially our vision, have slowly returned to normal levels.
As far as we could see, we realized that the meadow we were in was a trapezoidal clearing at the boundary of the snowline of Mount Kinabalu. The terrain is flat, there is no big shelter, and the midday sun should be abundant, so the snow is not as thick as it is around. It just serves as a place for us who have been blown away by the psionic storm as a place to ease our breath.
Looking around, my gaze was fixed on the high black and white wall looming behind the clump of snow flakes overhead—inconspicuous, but the silhouette of the snow obscured by my psionic pupils was also in full view of my mind's eye.
"Is that the wreckage of the temple after the explosion?" After all, Sharon is mortal, and she can't see clearly in the gray snow and mist, so she can only continue to ask me about the situation.
"I guess so. I'm worried about my buddy, let's go up and have a look. "I just wanted to use my mind to further scan the anger around the temple, but I didn't know that the sequelae of the spiritual energy vortex had not fully recovered: as soon as I exerted my strength, my head hurt. Worried about the cabinet and Mengzhao, I gritted my teeth and beckoned Sharon to join me on our hands and feet and climb straight up the slippery cliff with our bare hands.
After climbing nearly 50 or 60 meters in a straight line, we finally climbed the cliff where the temple was located, panting. Before I could stand on my feet, I was surprised to find that the temple in front of me was not at all the ruins and ruins I expected, although the walls and roof were covered with a thick layer of snow, but it was obviously very different from what we had seen before!
I saw that the red, white and black wall was as bright as the paint it had just been painted last night in the white snow; The pillar in front of the main entrance is still intact, and the varnish applied on it does not seem to have dried yet, and we can smell the faint fragrance even from a few meters away...... This is simply not the ruined temple we explored before!
Could it be that Sharon and I were blown away by that powerful psionic storm and fell to the other side of the mountain? It's possible.
Thinking of this, Sharon and I exchanged glances and decided to reach in and ask someone first. After all, after all the tossing and turning, my stomach had already "growled"; Besides, even with the Liuhe Treasure Clothes to resist, our clothes have become tattered from the previous psionic explosion, and we are in urgent need of supplies and replacements.
The temple also looked like a Sakya, and the main entrance was very eye-catching, and Sharon and I approached it, but before we called the door, we were seen by two visiting lamas who turned out of the corner of the door, one of whom saw Sharon in rags, and a foreign woman, and spat out a string of rapid Tibetan words in her mouth.
Originally, I wanted to go up and talk, but when I saw the other party's appearance as if she was facing a great enemy, I suddenly found that they seemed to treat her as a demon and a monster.
Sure enough, by the time we reacted, the loud lama had already called more than a dozen people, all carrying knives, guns and sticks, ready to greet us.
What is the situation? Can't you say something well?
Seeing that the other party had no intention of being reasonable at all, I had to protect Sharon, who had not fully recovered her physical condition, behind me. Just as I was about to open my mouth to stop them, an iron rod in the hand of a monk was already sandwiched with the sound of "whirring" and really smashed on my head!
"I rub it, it hurts!"
Like Sharon, my body has not fully recovered, so neither the true qi in my body nor the Wei Qi on the surface of my body is one of the tenths of what I normally do, and even my reaction is much slower than usual. So, the other party's stick really greeted me on the head, and I was beaten to the point that my head was bleeding.
Seeing that I was bleeding like a stream, Sharon didn't know where the strength came from, and took advantage of the moment when I was dizzy, broke free of my hand, grabbed the iron rod that the monk didn't have time to retract, and then with a strange force, with just a slight wave, he threw the iron rod and the bewildered monk ten feet away!
And on this side, Sharon, who suddenly exerted force, was also physically exhausted, and she was about to hit the ground if she was unstable on her feet, but fortunately, I was quick to see her and hold her waist earlier, and took her top-heavy into my arms.
Not far away, only to hear the sound of "poof" when the monk landed stirred up a muffled sound of snowflakes, and more than ten people on the opposite side were already dumbfounded. Although the ground was covered with thick snow, the guy who attacked me didn't hurt his bones, but Sharon's martial arts had instantly shocked the other party, making them only shout loudly, but they didn't dare to cross the thunder pool for half a step.
Hehe, now, I'm afraid that even if I insist on explaining to them that Sharon is not a monster, I guess no one will believe it, right?!
There was a stalemate for about a quarter of an hour, and just as I thought that the other party was about to withdraw, I don't know which of the monks who had been stabbed by a thousand knives pushed the person in front of him, and the monk who was forced to rush forward slipped his foot and staggered towards us with a stick.
"Whoa, whoa!"
As soon as someone took the lead, the rest of the monks suddenly rushed towards us like chicken blood, and all of a sudden, Tibetan knives, iron rods, hammers, and flat shoulders all greeted us—this look, not to mention the opportunity to confess, even the moment of surrender did not intend to give us the rhythm!
"Don't deceive people too much!"
Seeing that the situation was critical, I thought about it after all, my own state was too bad, and if Sharon was allowed to have another bad situation, I couldn't afford to take this responsibility. Thinking like this, I hurriedly pulled out my hand and turned the reincarnation mirror hanging on my neck, gritted my teeth to endure the headache, released a small part of my soul power, and reluctantly activated the vipassana psychic, and turned the spirit in my body? The finch yin is externalized and revealed.
"Zla!"
Hearing only a scream, when the fire phoenix appeared, the firelight directly illuminated the twilight of dusk, and even melted more than half of the snow under his feet in an instant, and even almost ignited the robes of the lamas opposite.
And my purpose, of course, is not to scare them. Seeing that everyone was dispersed, I hurriedly retracted the extremely soul-consuming Sparrow Yin form and summoned the spirit spirit instead? Stinky lungs, the body turned into a night owl, gently grabbed Sharon, who had fallen into a semi-comatose state, and flew into the air silently, floating towards the meadow where he had rested and recovered before.
After landing safely, I saw that the reckless lamas did not chase after me, and I also breathed a long sigh of relief in my heart. After finding a sheltered cave and resting with Sharon for a while, I couldn't help but talk to her about a few of the many doubts I had discovered through a series of contacts just now:
First of all, has such a guy really never seen a foreigner? Why did she react so violently after seeing the blonde Sharon? Moreover, why did the great lamas not even understand my standard Chinese, but instead attacked us like evil spirits and attacked us more and more frantically?
It's weird.
Sharon also felt that things were strange when I told me about the differences between these temples and the monks I had visited the day before. After a while, we finally decided to take advantage of the darkness to sneak into that strange temple and find out the hidden secrets of that place.
Just do it. When we were in good shape, Sharon and I climbed to the place where we had just fought with the lamas, and quietly approached the outer wall, and rode up the outer wall from a relatively low place to see that there was no one around, and climbed into it with great ease.
After successfully infiltrating, the two of us also carefully sneaked for a distance, until we walked into the inner courtyard, and we really didn't meet anyone. It seems that such a big lama is really lazy, and he sleeps in a daze as soon as it gets dark, and he really enjoys it.
As I pondered, and when I laughed in my heart, my vigilance couldn't help but drop a notch, and I didn't even notice that a slender figure, holding an iron rod, quietly felt out of the shadows behind me, and was about to swing a heavy muffled stick at the back of my head—
"Drink!"
In the midst of the shouting, the sticks were already falling on top of me with the sound of the wind. It's just that after a muffled "pop", I felt that the world was spinning, and the person who fell unconscious after falling to the ground was not me.
Before I turned around, I knew that it was, of course, the masterpiece of the foreign girl who accompanied me, the Valkyrie-like and brave Sharon. It's just that when I really turned around and looked, I was shocked by the scene in front of me and froze in place.
Look at the look on Sharon's face, it's the same as mine.
Why?
It's just because, the guy who was lying on the ground after being subdued by Sharon's move, except for being younger, had a figure and face that looked exactly the same as the body of Master Luo Quan that we saw in the Jade Bureau Peak Stone Cave the day before yesterday!
In other words, when did the powerful Luo Quan Mage become so vulnerable?
Could it be that we, could it be, crossed over?! Tomb Hunter East White
